At the beginning of a new year do you feel reflective,as I do?
I began pondering the upcoming year last week. I'm a list-maker,so maybe that's why I started a bit early. That is early right?
Two of the biggest areas I want to see improvement in, is my Bible reading and organization. I was praying for direction in these areas,something tangible I could follow. Just like God does ALL the time, He put two resources in my path.
I regretfully did not read the Bible through last year. So, this guideline is not new to me. But, I will be following it. This was shared through one of my favorite yahoo groups.
If you want to read the Bible in a year like I do, all it takes is three chapters a day! Wow! How distracted and lazy was I this past year? Please don't tell me I'm the only one. Now,if you get into stories like I do and you keep reading, we can get through the Bible in six months. All it takes is six chapter a day. Double that and it can be read in three months!
So, to recap,(here comes my list. lol)
3 chpts per day = 1 year
6 chpts per day = 6 months
12 chpts per day = 3 months
I did a real quick search for Bible reading schedules and found this within a minute. I love the internet.

This gives you all the possible options in one quick view.
Now, for my second area of the year....organization.
I received this resource in an email from another yahoo group.

I love this! God answers me with specifically hand-tailored answers. This is the ultimate list,isn't it? It breaks it down in steps throughout the year. I don't have a lot of extra time. So, I'll be conquering the messy beast within on a consistent basis.
I'll share today's: "Think about who you want to be this coming year".- January First
What are some of your goals this year? I'd love to hear it. We need to stick together.
